The importer voluntarily took the necessary measures to remove non-compliant products from the market.\n(5)\nThe documentation available, the comments expressed and the action taken by the parties concerned demonstrate that the impact drill, type Dayron/70000, fails to satisfy the essential health and safety requirements of Directive 2006/42/EC. It is therefore appropriate to consider the measure taken by Spain as justified,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:",
